    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    Well, you sold yourself on the Kolm? Awesome!! That's a great plan you have Rob, start with some 1/5 scale warbirds before diving into a 1/4 scale. Very common to carry up to 12 pounds on the nose of these birds. No matter the power plant, always save room for lead to be attached. Most of my...

    Just made a order and happy to see another vendor selling the stuff we use and need. Frankly I was tired paying 8 dollars flat rate shipping for 25 screws at the other place. Not a big deal when I have a large order though.
